The strawberries at the grocery stores are starting to dwindle and the farmers market is starting to fill up with other local, in season berries and fruits but I still want to get a few more strawberry recipes in. I really could not let strawberry season pass me by without making strawberry shortcake at least once, I mean it is pretty much the quintessential strawberry dish and it just just screams happy summer days! Luckily strawberry shortcake is super easy to make even if you are making the shortcake from scratch! It is just as easy as mixing the five ingredients in the shortcake dough, forming it into your favourite shapes, baking it for 15 minutes and topping it with whipped cream and sliced fresh, ripe strawberries. All said and done and you could be enjoying a strawberry induced bliss on pillowy clouds of light and fluffy shortcake in less than 30 minutes!

I am glad that the shortcake recipe makes 4 cakes because I still have some more strawberries to enjoy!

Wow. I knew they would be delicious, but me and my friends were all blown away by how delicious these came out. In prepping the strawberries, we mixed them with a little bit of sugar, and let them sit out at room temperature to get the juices flowing. Then we mashed them (just a little) with a potato masher and they were the perfect consistency. The biscuits were outstanding! Thanks for the great recipe!

Yum! I never thought I'd be able to make a shortcake that would compare to those I could buy! What a great recipe.

Something I like to do is put some freeze dried strawberries on top as well. It adds another texture to the whole meal that I love! I like to buy freeze dried strawberries in bulk so that I can add them in lots of recipes or as a snack. You should try them! They haven't let me down yet.

I came to realize that my meals were boring and that I had been eating the same few dishes over and over again for years. It was time for a change! I now spend my free time searching for, creating and trying tasty new recipes in my closet sized kitchen.
